The Golden State

Rated 4.0

This irreverent comedy “reinvents” Molière's 1668 classic The Miser in crazy, contemporary SoCal terms, spicing the bawdiness with gay and straight relationships, references to cocaine, immigration, deportation and blazing summer wildfires threatening expensive homes. It's a well-executed, rowdy romp, with a slightly sharp edge. F, Sa 8pm. Through 9/6. $12-$17.50. Kennedy Mine Amphitheatre, 1127 N. Main St. in Jackson; (209) 295-4499; www.mstw.org.
